just quick & dirty cell phone pics i took last night. if you click the link on the bottom of the post you can see how clean my paint can get with a bit of claybar. It's in dire need of that and a good photo shoot! Manual Transmission, Euro Smileys, Plastic Bumpers, and Euro Grills are all in the very near future.

I purchased my first e30 a little less than a year ago. Since then I have gone through quite a bit of change. 3 sets of wheels, wood grain nardi, mtech 1 wheel, CSL style carbon fiber trunk and more.

Here is the car in its current state.

17x7.5 AC Schnitzer Type 2's et 48 . 20 mm spacers. 215/45/17 Bridgestone Potenzas. The wheels came off of a mini cooper. I had to get the centerbore machined 1mm for them to fit.
Mtech 1 wheel
H&R Cup Kit
e30 Offset CAB
Ceramic Brake Pads . Stoptech cross drilled rotors. Stainless steel brake lines.

ps - have some 50mm lug bolts for sale (perfect for 25mm spacers) some bottlecaps and the csl style carbon fiber trunk!


random shot before i put on my wheels driving through a local canyon by my parents house.

Thinking it looks like it's on Donks. Mainly because you are on stock suspension.

Edit: Just noticed you said that's a cup suspension. Just think 17's are big for standard E30.

the ride height is perfect imo

Probably more to do with it being a diving board vert. They'd look better with a body kit or facelifted model. I like the look of them. You don't see 17" 1pc ACS rims on E30's often.

the black undercoating makes it look higher than it really is, I like the combo

I think those look awesome on there. I love ACS wheels and they look stellar on your vert

For some reason it really does look like a donk. More low and 40 series tires will help. I have 17s on my car and they still look big, but more lows and shorter tires help a lot.

Ditch the CSL trunk lid IMO. Looks cool on an e46, looks weird on an e30

nice combo
